Photo Review: Ethiopian Sheba Platinum & Gold Lounge, Addis Ababa Airport

Ethiopian Sheba Platinum & Gold Lounge, Addis Ababa Airport (ADD)

INTRODUCTION

Last month, I found a good fare from Stockholm to the Seychelles with Ethiopian Airlines in economy class for 7,630 SEK. I had a few days off at work so we ended up booking our flight where we stay 3 nights in the Seychelles and a night in Addis Ababa on the way home. I will only be making reviews of the lounges and hotels we visit on this trip, although I'll make video reviews of our economy class flights on YouTube, in addition to the usual hotel and lounge video reviews. This trip is special as we will be staying at 3 different Hilton properties in the Seychelles namely Hilton Seychelles Northolme, Mango House LXR and the Canopy by Hilton Seychelles. We just can´t wait for this trip to unfold and hope all goes well!
